BACKGROUND

The present disclosure is directed to improving the efficiency of mechanical and electrical devices by incorporating a magnetic torque convertor. The magnetic torque convertor is a helper device that reduces loads on electrical devices using mechanical advantage.

Most electric motors AC and DC use electromagnets and permanent magnets in their operations. Electromagnets draw current to a coil of copper to create magnetic flux lines. Permanent magnets create magnetic flux lines through its body. They are continuously producing magnetic lines of flux and do not draw current. Most magnet arrays are parallel or perpendicular to each other. They use repulsion or attraction to move across each other. There is a stator and a rotor in both electric motors and generators. Electric motors use electricity to produce torque. Generators use a power source of some sort to provide rotation of the rotor to produce electricity.

Typical engine torque converters use spinning turbine blades to deliver pressure continuously when spinning. Torque is transferred from one cavity to another cavity using hydraulics. The faster one turbine spins the faster the second turbine spins. However, during this power transfer energy is used during the application.

What is needed is a device that can improve the efficiency of loaded (electrical load or mechanical load) rotating systems.

An aspect of the present disclosure is to produce more efficiency for simple mechanical machines and electrical motors and generators. In order to do this the magnetic torque converter reduces the load component on the output shaft of the external power source. This load reduction is caused by using 3 mechanical advantages, a wedge, magnetic levitation, and gravity acting on the main drive components of the magnetic torque converter.

The magnetic torque converter (M.T.C.) is a helper device that reduces loads on electrical devices using mechanical advantage. This device can be powered by the output shaft of an electric motor, a pump, an air compressor, and other sources of rotational power. The M.T.C. is designed to reduce the normal electrical load and other types of workloads required by an electrical device or mechanical device using 3 distinct and different mechanical advantages. These mechanical advantages include the use of a wedge, levitation and gravity. The wedge is used in the design of the inclined ramps mounted to a rotating base. The magnetic levitation is used to reduce the weight of a moving mass. The moving weight is a permanent magnet located in the lifting arm assembly. The third mechanical advantage, gravity, is the force of energy that pushes the same moving mass downwards to complete a half rotational circle. The M.T.C. acts as a Booster energy pump reducing the energy requirements of the original (input) energy power supply.

The utility applications that can be accommodated include a mechanical device that requires power to operate such as, water pumps, air pumps, compressors, generators, D.C. electrical drive motors, wind turbines, and internal combustion engines but not limited to these applications.

By incorporating a device that transfers the energy of a reducing mechanical lift requirement to a drive line component system will result in overall efficiency of the driveline system. In order to reduce the mechanical lift requirement there has to be a reduction in the weight of the moving parts. One of the ways to reduce the weight of moving parts is to use magnetic levitation. When an object is being levitated the mass of the object remains the same but the space in which the mass is moving uses a force to direct the mass upward against the force of gravity.

This force can be created by bringing two permanent magnetics of similar polarity fields together in correct alignment that results in a continuous repulsion and separation space. This magnet power wave continues as long as the magnetic alignment remains the same and there is an external force that moves the magnets. The magnets are forced to perform work in this alignment displacing weights and moving them upwards creating levitation. This transfer of energy results in a reduced load requirement of the external power source that is passed along in the drive components of the magnetic torque converter.

Placement of the magnetic torque converter in line with existing power systems will result in more efficient power systems. End user utility applications include wind generators, pumping equipment, internal combustion engines, and D.C. motors and generators. The list of utility applications is not limited to the above list.

The disclosed device reduces load requirements of the external power source by 30-37% over standard power source setups. Another aspect is the use of magnetic levitation using special alignment of magnets. Another aspect of the invention is using of a continuous moving wedge or incline plane. Another aspect of the invention is the use of gravity to complete one half of a work cycle that rotates a shaft. Another aspect of the invention is the linear stacking of multiple magnetic torque converters to create varying size motors. Another aspect of the invention is the use of a proprietary magnetic angle alignment.

Another aspect of the present invention is the use of proprietary magnetic field flux manipulators using special designed copper coils when multiple magnets are used back to back. This magnetic field manipulation allows magnets to cross over one another without the normal field flux cogging.

This methodology uses a steady rotation by an external power source to produce a constant meshing of two opposing magnetic fields mounted on a horizontal rotor and on a vertical rotor. These continuous opposing fields cause a levitating effect. The masses that are uplifted during the levitation are slammed back to their original position using the force of gravity or steel springs. The orientation of the M.T.C. to the horizontal plane will dictate if the force of gravity or steel springs can be utilized. It is advantageous to use the force of gravity over springs because the efficiency will be greater and the gravitational force is free.

Other details of the magnetic torque converter are set forth in the following detailed description and the accompanying drawings wherein like reference numerals depict like elements.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

FIG. 1 shows the main components that make up the M.T.C. (5) including the rotating base platform (10), the external power source (20), the risers (30), the permanent magnets (32) (34), the lifting rod assemblies (42), the lifting rods (40), the lifting cap (50), the race (17) and the support frame (60).

FIG. 2 shows the support frame (60), the curved tops of the risers (30) covered with riser permanent magnets (32), the top side of the external power source (20), the lifting rod supports (42), the lifting rods (40) with the magnets (34) attached below, and the rotating base platform (10).

FIG. 3 is a schematic drawing of a linear setup using 4 individual M.T.C. modules (5) connected together with a crankshaft (6). The schematic drawing also shows a flywheel (7) at the end of the crankshaft (6), and the external power supply (20). These embodiments are not limiting.

FIG. 4 is a schematic drawing of an exemplary embodiment using an electromagnetic clutch assembly (36), a reed switch (66), down ramp (35), and a guide wheel (38) to operate the device in a free-wheeling mode on the down stroke. When the reed switch is triggered it cuts the electrical circuit between the power supply and the electromagnet (36) and the drive motor (20). This results in the rotating base to be free-wheeling.

As shown in FIG. 1 an external power source 20 rotates the main base platform 10 about an axis 12 via a belt or chain 14. The rotating base platform 10 sits on a bed of ball bearings 15 that are housed in a race 17. As the base platform 10 rotates risers 30 coupled to the base platform 10 and the riser permanent magnets 32 attached to the risers 30. The riser magnets 32 travel in close proximity to lifting rod magnets 34 attached to the bottom of the lifting rods 40. The magnets 32 and 34 are setup to oppose each other's magnetic flux fields. The riser magnets 32 on the top the risers 30 have the North poles facing up. The rod magnets 34 on the bottom of lifting rods 40 have their North poles facing down. As the two opposing forces move against each other the repelling force creates levitation forcing the lifting rods 40 to move upwards as the rotating base moves forward. The movement of the lifting rods 40 is tied together in unison with the lifting cap 50. As the lifting cap 50 moves upwards it pushes a connecting rod 55. As the lifting rods 40 reach the upper end of their stoke (cycle) the lifting rods 40 and lifting cap 50 come crashing back down via gravity to intercept the beginning of the up riser 30 to repeat the cycle over and over again.

The rotating base platform (10) can employ a variable speed via the external power source (20). Rotations of the base platform per minute can also be controlled by gearing, motor driver, and/or and rheostat switch to the electrical power source (20). The rotating base sits on ball bearings (15) that are located in a race (17).

Adjustable risers (30) are fixed to the rotating base platform (10). The risers (30) have an adjustable end that allows the angle between the base platform (10) and the risers (30) to be increased or decreased by raising the height or lowering the height respectively. The best performance of the device occurs when the range of the angle of the two meeting magnetic fields stay between 28 degrees and 33 degrees and thus optimizes magnetic field repulsion between the two magnetic fields of the riser magnets 32 and the lift rod magnets 34.

The control level of the magnetic fields can be adjusted by changing out permanent magnets (32) (34) with varying degrees of strength. Permanent magnets are assigned strengths depending on the lifting power normally measured in lbs. The permanent magnets (32) (34) are to be found along the tops of the risers (30) and the bottom of the lifting rods (40). The permanent magnets (32) (34) can be switched out to accommodate the lifting forces required by the end user. Using stronger magnets will provide more lifting force whereas using weaker magnets will provide a weaker lifting force.

Another aspect of the present invention is the lifting rod assemblies (42) shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 . The lifting rod assemblies (42) house the lifting rods (40) and supply rigid support to the moving lifting rods (40). Attached to the bottom of each lifting rod (40) is the lifting rod permanent magnet (34). The lifting rod permanent magnet (34) is coupled to the lifting rod 40 opposite the lifting cap 50. Each lifting rod has a lifting rod assembly and the number of lifting rods can vary depending on the configuration utilized. The configuration shown in the disclosure includes three lifting assemblies. The configuration can also operate using only one lifting rod assembly. Configurations can change to accommodate larger quantities of lifting rods and lifting rod assemblies.

Another aspect of the present invention is the position of the lifting rods in relation to the rest of the magnetic torque converter (5). The lifting rod assemblies (42) and the lifting rods (40) are in vertical alignment to the remainder of the device (5). The lifting rods are in communication with a lifting cap (50). The lifting cap (50) combines the total lifting effects of all the lifting rods into one force.

FIG. 3 shows four M.T.C.s (5) stacked in linear fashion to complete one power platform configuration connected by one crankshaft (6). These platforms allow various power performances depending on the requirements of the end user.

FIG. 4 shows an exemplary embodiment using an electromagnet (36), a reed switch (66), a crank wheel (80) and an external energy user (85). This allows the free-wheeling mode to accommodate moving the rotating base (10) using the force of gravity transferred to the down slope ramp (35) via the falling weight of the lifting arm (42) and the connecting rod (55). The rotating base (10) will move forward until it reaches a second reed switch (66) which will activate the energizing of the electromagnet (36) and the drive motor (20) to continue with the cycle. A drive axle (83) turns the turbine, generator, pump or other device (85). Leads (77) run from the power source (P.S.) to the electromagnet 36.

The lifting cap (50) is configured to transfer the total force to a connecting rod (55) via a mounted journal (53). This positions the connecting rod (55) to be part of an output driveline assembly (80) see FIG. 4 . The crank wheel driveline assembly (80) can be part of a pumping station, generator, or other simple mechanical device that requires power to operate (85).

In the disclosed configuration a power source (P.S) operates the drive motor (20) and powers the reed switch (66) and the electromagnet (36). In an exemplary embodiment, a 12 volt battery is employed to provide power to the above mentioned components with a controller that takes the power from the turbine (85) converts AC to DC and sends power back to the battery (P.S.).

The movement of the end of the cycle is dictated by the orientation of the M.T.C. to the earth's horizon. If the orientation of the lifting rods is perpendicular to the horizon then the force of gravity will end the cycle as the magnets finish passing over one another. If the position of the M.T.C. has a different orientation to the horizon as previously mentioned then springs will be required to bring the cycle to an end as the magnets pass over each other.

This cycling causes an up and down movement of the lifting cap 50. This linear motion is turned into rotational movement using a crankshaft 6.

In order to reduce the load of the output lifting cap 50 and increase torque, levitation has to occur. The levitation occurs when two similar magnetic fields pass in close proximity at a rigid specified angle.

Referring now to FIGS. 5 and 6 schematic drawing of the side view and end view of an exemplary embodiment of the magnetic torque converter 5. The exemplary embodiment includes a vertical platform. The rotating base 10 is no longer turning in a horizontal plane as shown in FIG. 1 but instead the rotating base 112 is in a vertical plane as shown at FIGS. 5 and 6 . The rotating base 112 rotates around an axle 122 that has an axis that is perpendicular to gravity and horizontal to the horizon. The riser blades 132 are fixed to a plate 112 that is spinning in a vertical plane 134. The lifting rod/magnet assembly (110) remains in the same position and is lifted up as the blades 132 spin upwards. The riser blades 132 hold a series of magnets in place and can be flat or curved to accommodate the most productive movement of the lifting rod 110, such that the lifting rod 110 rides on the magnetic repulsion of the magnets on the riser blades 132.

Each riser blade 132 is equally distanced from each other and is anchored on the rotating base plate 112 at the beginning section of the blade 132. An anchor point 136 acts as a pivot point to allow the remaining upper portion of the riser blade 132 to rotate changing the angle of the riser blade 132. Once the desired angle is achieved the riser blade 132 can be permanently attached.

The exemplary embodiment shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 is configured to install more blades 132 in a small area, thus allowing more cycles to be completed in less time. This feature allows for faster speeds. The riser blades 132 are more compact and easier to manufacture.

The exemplary embodiment shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 utilizes a small driver motor 116 connected to the axle 122 of the vertical rotor 112 via a gear/pulley 114 and chain/belt 108 to turn the vertical assembly. The rotating vertical assembly pushes the lifting rod/connecting rod 102 upwards using the power of magnetic repulsion. The second part of the cycle uses gravity when the weight of the connecting rod 102 and the lifting magnet 110 return to the starting position. This up and down motion is transferred to a second axle which is a crankshaft 100. However, in another exemplary embodiment, any mechanical device that converts linear motion to rotational motion can be used instead of the crankshaft 100. The second axle can transfer the energy captured and used to turn a secondary motor 128 or generator 130. The transfer can be completed using an electromagnetic clutch 124 or a belt driven clutch assembly and a hub 126.

The exemplary embodiment employs a set of timing gears 106 and timing chain/belt 108 to secure a timed motion of the spinning vertical rotor 112 and the crankshaft 100.

A support base 120, bearing stands 118, and guide posts for the lifting rod 104 serve to support the mechanisms disclosed.

Another aspect of the present invention is to use/offer several types of stacking arrangements to vary power platforms.
